Treatment covers preventive, restorative and cosmetic needs:

Implant Dentures

Emergency Dental

Appointments held open for problems that won't wait, including knocked or fractured teeth, lost fillings, abscesses and toothache that has come on abruptly.

Dental Fillings

Repair work for teeth affected by decay or a small break. The damaged area is taken out and the tooth rebuilt so the surface holds up to normal biting and chewing.

Teeth Whitening icon

Teeth Whitening

A treatment that lightens the shade of natural teeth, available in-chair or as a take-home kit. The effect fades gradually, so the shade is maintained with occasional top-up treatment rather than lasting permanently.

Dental Implants

Dental Implants

A post placed in the jaw to carry a replacement tooth. The process runs over several appointments with healing time between stages, and suitability depends on the bone available.

Things Worth Knowing First

A few practical points before you book:

  • HICAPS claiming covers most major funds and is processed while you are still at the practice, leaving only the out-of-pocket portion to pay.
  • A payment plan can be set up where cost is a barrier, and the criteria, term length and repayment amounts are gone over with you first.
  • The schedule reserves room each day for dental emergencies, covering everything from a lost filling to swelling that has come on overnight.
  • The quote and the expected number of appointments are both covered before the treatment plan is confirmed.
  • Households are often booked in sequence, which suits families working around school hours and shift work.

How Often You Should Have a Check-Up

Six months is the interval that suits most adults, and it's what your dentist will generally recommend. That said, it isn't fixed. Patients with a history of gum disease, dry mouth from medication, or a grinding habit are often reviewed more often, while consistently stable gums may mean visits can be spaced further apart.

The interval matters because dental problems build quietly. Decay starts in the tight spots between teeth where a brush can't reach, and gum disease can cause bone loss before there's any real discomfort. Treatment suitability and results vary between individuals, and your dentist can advise what may be appropriate for your circumstances.

Getting Across the River to Wellington Street

The practice sits on Wellington Street in the city centre, just over the North Esk River. The Charles Street Bridge carries traffic straight into the CBD grid and is the route most patients take, putting the trip at around five minutes. From the western streets, Forster Street connects across to the same crossing. The distance is short, and bus routes run the same way for anyone not driving. Parking is available near the practice.
